NO SEPARATION! April 27, 2020
Romans 8 began with the good news of NO CONDEMNATION is Christ and now the chapter ends with NOTHING CAN SEPARATE YOU FROM GOD'S LOVE. Wow--what amazing book-ends of this chapter. Verse 28 tells us that ALL THINGS work together for good for those who love the Lord. It doesn't matter what we may be facing or going through on any given moment, we can be assured that God is working in our lives to fulfill His divine purposes in and through us.
In verse 31 Paul reminds us that GOD IS FOR US! God have us His own Son to die for us and because of that amazing gift alone we enjoy being adopted into the family of God. We have everything necessary to live our lives for Christ, and Paul reminds us that God graciously gives to us all things we have need of. But the pinnacle of the grace of God that Paul has now been sharing with us through Romans up until now is because of Christ's love manifested in our lives through the power of the Holy Spirit is that WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS THROUGH HIM WHO LOVED US!
Imagine that in today's atmosphere--not even COVID-19 can conquer you! Staying in and all the various emotions etc that come with today's current situations can conquer you. No trouble of any kind can defeat you--nothing!
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IS ABLE TO SEPARATE YOU FROM THE LOVE OF GOD THAT IS IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD!
Let your heart relish in these truths today and be encouraged!
